Mariners’ starter Roenis Elias, who was making his last appearance of the spring, looked sharp. He gave up a two-out single to Troy Tulowitzki, but struck out Carlos Gonzalez to end the inning.

Robinson Cano hit into a double play off of Rockies starter Tyler Chatwood to end the inning.

Second inning

Elias gets into a little trouble with a walk to Nolan Arenado and a single to Drew Stubbs, but he finds a way to work out of it, getting DJ LeMahieu to ground into a 6-4-3 double play to end the inning.

The Mariners go down 1-2-3 against Chatwood.

Third inning

So the top of the third was a little interesting. Chatwood tripled to center to start the inning. But while he has hustling around the bases, he somehow injured himself and was forced to leave the game. Elias looked like he might get out of the jam, striking out Brandon Barnes and getting Michael Cuddyer to ground out to third. However, Tulowitzski doubled to right-center to score a run. Carlos Gonzalez followed with a single to score Tulo.

Fourth inning

Elias gives up a two-out triple to Drew Stubbs. But he calmly gets LeMahieu to ground out to second to end the inning.

Abraham Almonte gets the Mariners’ first hit of the game with a single up the middle. But the Mariners get a touch bad luck when Brad Miller’s line drive rocket up the middle is gloved by Lopez somehow. Almonte had no chance and was doubled off first. Robinson Cano followed with a double to left but Justin Smoak’s hard ground ball to the right side was gloved by Cuddyer and flipped to first for the out.

Rockies 2, Mariners 0

Fifth inning

Elias the escape artist does it again. He gave up a one-out single, got an out and then walked Tulowitzki. With Josh Rutledge up, the Rockies executed a double steal to put runners in scoring position. But Elias didn’t get rattled. He calmly struck out Rutledge to end the inning.
